Every student is tracked for their performance on the CST and on District Benchmark assessments:
For students enrolled in the ELA Intervention classes:
EnCompass has established a block of time 4 days of the week, for 35 minutes, when all students are shifted into one of these content classes: English Language Development (ELD)/Academic English Development (AED)/Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) classes for all students.
EnCompass has created a Tier 2 and 3 ELA intervention classes for identified students:
- At the K-1 level, where CST data is not available, the school uses MCLASS as a universal assessment and the Dibels Next.
- For students who struggle to perform at grade level, the TSA administers 1:1 the Basic Phonics Skills Test to get a deeper understanding of the student’s specific challenge(s).
- For grades 2-5, EnCompass uses the SRI, usually administering it earlier than the rest of district to get a sense of student need. They also do the Dibels Next and BPST for identified students.
For students enrolled in the ELA Intervention classes:
- The teachers with the support of the TSA do close progress monitoring.
- This system informs teachers how all their intervention students are doing and allows them to precisely determine why a student struggles in reading and to monitor the student’s response to instruction and intervention.
